Renaming the Production Environment Repository

Upgrades: All upgrades.

Environments: Production test, production.

Two separate repositories are used during the production upgrade process:

• Your existing production repository. To prevent a naming conflict, before you run the upgrade, rename your existing production repository (Siebel Repository) to Prior Customer Repository. After the upgrade, your new Release 7.8 production repository is given the name Siebel Repository.

  Rename your existing production repository following the procedure described in Renaming the Siebel Repository Using Siebel Tools.

• New Customer Repository. This repository is loaded when you run the Siebel Upgrade Wizard.

CAUTION:  Your upgrade will encounter errors if you have more than one existing repository for a production upgrade. Export and archive any redundant repositories from your environment before you upgrade your production environment.

For further information about renaming repositories, see Configuring Siebel Business Applications.
